I have been using your guide and the Redscorp files and I get to the PROM Boot loader page, select the boot device and this is what I keep getting on the output display:

the iso images were taken from torrentz.com, initially a .dmg file format and had it converted using PowerISO. yeah, i'll try and download another copy as well as the 6gig bootable disk image.

might as well do that since right now i'm getting error "path not found" after i tried creating a new config file, which was after i changed directories (thinking that the long directory filenames may be part of the cause), un-installed & re-installing pearpc control panel.

even after going back and using the original directory structure, importing the config file, i would still get "path not found". oh well.

When you create a config file with the web service, please make sure you set boot_args to "-v". That way you can see what is causing the "no entry" sign to appear. My guess would be that the 6Gb image is not OK.

by the way,
1. didn't have to compile my own version of pearpc, used the latest compiled version available on pearpc's site.
2. still get the error message: [IO/CUDA] <Warning> keyb reg1
3. i get a lot of this error message during installation:
[IO/CUDA] <Warning> Event processing timed out. Event dropped.
4. set my memory setting to 128 MB, since Tiger won't install on anything less or more than 128 MB (can always be increased later)
